Protest against Israeli assault on Gaza

Several thousand people gathered in Amsterdam’s Museum Square on Saturday to protest against the Israeli assault on the Gaza Strip. The demonstration also targetted the Dutch government; according to many protesters, The Hague is also responsible for the violence unless it explicitly condemns the Israeli attacks.

The protest has been organised by a coalition of more than 25 organisations including the Dutch-Palestine Committee, Milli Görüs and A Different Jewish Voice. Over the last week, there were also protests in The Hague and Rotterdam.
